001 - Overview

High-level inspections conducted by skilled and experienced pilots

We deliver efficient, cost-effective drone surveys, designed to facilitate property inspection and maintenance.

High-resolution aerial survey captured by drone over UK commercial property, providing accurate mapping and inspection data by Survey Air.

Why choose drones for high-level inspection?

Drones (UAVs) offer a cost-effective, safe way to access hard-to-reach areas, ideal for inspecting building roofs, facades, mechanical equipment, and infrastructure.

Safety

UAVs minimise the need for MEWP equipment, scaffolding, and reducing the potential for hazardous situations associated with Working At Height.

Efficiency

Drones cut down on expenses related to equipment, and time associated with traditional inspection methods, with fast and affordable data collection.

Accessibility

Equipped with high-resolution cameras, UAVs collect comprehensive building inspection data, aiding in condition reporting and informed decision-making.
